Limitless The Strongest Revenant

As I ran pass the girls, Amari, Mia and the rest of the reapers. My voice came out by itself as I tried to drown out the fear that kept telling me to run away.

The white guys were still around, so defeat was not yet a certainty. But I felt that if I cowered at this moment, everything I achieved until now would lose its meaning.

"AHHH!! COME AT ME YOU FUCKERS!!!" While high on adrenaline I aimed my gun towards a brute and fired till I spent my mag.

After a few seconds, I heard a monstrous roar and numerous howls. Then female voices all screamed battle cries from behind me. Soon a chorus of fighting spirit joined as one as the ground shook from the footsteps.

From the sounds of it, it would appear that Amari, Mia and my girls all ran after me. And in so doing the scattered reapers followed.

Knowing I would not fight alone gave me great comfort. But before I could meet a brute something fell from the sky and landed beside me. The impact was so powerful it knocked me off my feet. When the dust settled a sultry voice reached my ears.

"Such fighting spirit! I Like you! Tell me your name reaper." The feminine voice asked.

The light made her shine like a goddess, her blue hair flowed due to the wind. It was Lilly Browning the woman who began this night of hell. She placed a futuristic looking glowing greatsword over her shoulders in one swift movement. The sound it made showed how heavy her weapon was.

"John Smith."

"Oh? How astute, so you do not wish to tell me then?"

"I just did."

"No matter. While I like your spunk reaper, these brutes are way above you."

"I already killed one though?"

"Truly? Magnificent. Has the undead stalker already been taken care of?" asked the elegant warrior.

"Yes, my comrades took it down."

Lilly then tapped her finger on her cheeks as she made an alluring smile.

"Then why did you leave them to come barreling through here? Are you perhaps a battle junkie?"

"I didn't want to shrink in fear. I get to decide how I die. And I wish to do so while fighting." I replied.

The tremors on the ground now felt incredibly powerful. A hundred brutes rushed towards us like Normies. Despite that fact, Lilly didn't even give them a second glance, her attention was focused solely on me.

"Is that so? Formless. Yet your courage exceeds that even of a Phantom. Are you already aligned with anyone? Who is your handler?"

Unlike the other girls Lilly, had the majesty of a queen. I couldn't help replying respectfully to her. "Thank you, I am not affiliated with anyone, nor do I have a handler."

"Then it is decided, starting today, I will be your handler."

"Excuse me? No! I refuse!"

"Eh? You do not wish to be protected by me? Lilly Browning? Odd. Do you not know who I am?"

Why was this woman so focused on chatting right now? A hundred brutes were all charging here in a stampede!

"Ms. Lilly, I think we should focus on those undead." I advised.

"It seems you really know nothing of me. Wonderful. You interest me, John Smith. Then let me show you why I am sought after and why most would kill themselves just to become my foot stool."

Lilly had an amazing figure even from the platform, but up close she made even Hollywood actresses look like country bumpkins. Combined with her elegant demeanor and a large black greatsword she looked like a legendary warrior out of a myth.

"WATER SLICE!"

Lilly waved her sword horizontally while a great stream of water left its edge. Like a flying bullet her sword slash bisected five brutes at the waist.

"HOLY SHIT!" unable to contain my surprise I blurted out my amazement like a child.

Perhaps satisfied with my reaction, Lilly then raised her sword up high with both arms as she declared.

"It is too early to be amazed John Smith!"

A large amount of water exited her sword and gathered into the sky. Lilly then stretched out her hand heroically as she roared.

"WATER CUTTER!"

The water then molded itself to look like a gigantic circular disc. The disc started to spin and the flew towards the incoming horde. Lilly's powerful move violently ripped apart the brutes en mass like a saw hacking confetti.

'What the hell is this! Is this the power of the manifested? My {fates} look like party tricks compared to that!' I inwardly panicked.

Just then white comets fell all around Lily and me. What came out of the smoke were men and women similarly dressed like Ms. Browing, all of them were holding glowing weapons.

"Ms. Lilly, such a marvelous performance as expected of your highness," one commented.

"Didn't she effectively halve the brutes in a single strike? As expected, no matter how many times I see it, Ms. Lilly's {fate} Thirst is just amazing!"

"Her power is only surpassed by her beauty. Truly a gift to the world!"

The goddess who showed me such dazzling smiles earlier now looked like a demon who had her dog murdered.

"Stop chatting like Formless morons and get to work. Didn't I repeatedly tell you all I am not interested in sycophancy? Remain silent and terminate the remaining undead."

Did she get offended or something? Even after her subordinates left, anger was practically oozing out of the woman's body. At that moment Bella and the girls arrived and gathered around me.

"Honey, you really are a fucking lunatic."

Jasmine grabbed my arm and embraced it. "Husband, please be careful."

Lilly then smiled one more as she made a lighthearted comment.

"Is this why you ignored me John smith? You already have a harem who loves you very much?"

The girls turned to face Lilly then suddenly all kneeled. Confused it was only when everyone greeted her that I understood what was going on.

"We greet the Princess of the North American battle front. The Untamed Lily Browning."

Princess? America was a democracy, right? How could she be a princess? Should have I also kneeled? I didn't even greet her; would I get sent to jail for my disrespect? Before I could do anything, Lilly made a lovely smile and made fun of my ignorance.

"You seem perplexed John Smith. Even with my title and alias you still remain standing?"

Reflexively I replied in annoyance. "Should I? America is a democracy. I don't even bow to the president!"

Lilly then covered her mouth with her hand as she giggled like an angel.

"How refreshing. Alas, my time for fun has already ended. Such a shame."

At that moment I heard a voice coming from the skies like a siren.

"FLOOR BREAK! A spacial tear has appeared from floor 50. Rank B and A Undead are coming in! Numbers 150 and increasing!"

Rank A? How in the world did they even get here? I used {Perceive} and I saw a sight I wouldn't even want to see in my nightmares.

Undead dragons, liches, death knights, dullahans, zombie dinosaurs and even a fucking undead whale! Accompanying them was a huge army of flaming skeletons who all marched in sequence.

It was like someone from a necromancer novel came here and brought his army. The blood drained from my face as I saw the scene. Would Lilly's group be able to stop such a force?

What the fuck could I even do against such an army. All I had was a 1911 pistol and 15 bullets.

"So you do know how to get scared. Excellent, I would have been disappointed if you were not capable of rational thought." Lilly commented.

What the fuck was this woman spouting? Who in their right mind would not be afraid of such a situation. I looked around and noticed the entire reaper army was kneeling behind Lilly including her men, the ones in white uniform.

Why were none of them showing any fear? Before I could ask, I then heard a voice coming from beside Lilly. It was a burly man over six feet. Lilly should be above 5'10'' as she was even taller than me. So, seeing her be dwarfed by this man told me how tall he was.

Despite having {Listen} and {Perceive} I couldn't even feel him arrive. Who the hell was he? Just then Bella and Jasmine frantically pulled my arms while making faces warped in terror.

"Daughter, I told you to stop using such party tricks. Lying to yourself is pointless. This is how a reaper should fight," The man rebuked.

Against the coming undead horde, the man took a simple punching stance and slowly drove his fist forward.

"Wow! how lame," I blurted out loud in sarcasm.

But less than a second later I heard the sharp crack of the sound barrier. Unlike a bullet round the crack was even louder than the one made by airliners.

A thousand lights appeared around the undead army, they were even brighter than the floodlights and together shone like a small universe.

Then a fierce vacuum soon followed and sucked the air from the center of the coming horde creating a small black hole. The blackhole drew all the undead in as the lights began exploding like fireworks.

A detonation unlike anything I ever experienced before erupted as the finale. Savage winds struck my body so intensely I got thrown back.

A resonating boom then shook the very air. The sound was so loud I almost went deaf. My eyes and ears were so overwhelmed by the stimuli I tried to bury my face on the ground to protect them.

It took around two minutes for the everything to calm down. When I did look up, I saw a single man standing amidst a completely desolated land.

Like a king, like a god, the man stood unchallenged. Then it clicked how Lilly, was a princess despite being in America.

'In the history of Hellsgate, only seven Sovereigns have ever existed, and they are both the commanders and absolute kings of the seven battle fronts.'

"A Revenant." I whispered in disbelief.
